Hands-On Learning BYOD Sessions

Hands-On Learning BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) takes learning to the next level. In these sessions you will bring your mobile device or laptop, with the software being discussed installed, and have the unique opportunity to learn hands-on, following along with an instructor step-by-step.

Instructional
design is a core component of L&D, but it’s not a topic that should be seen
as stable and unchanging. Instructional design needs to evolve as new
technologies and approaches emerge, organizations’ goals for success shift, and
views on what role L&D should have in supporting learning and performance
support fluctuate.

As L&D gazes
into the crystal ball it becomes clear that new technology and new ways of
working will drastically change the world of work and force our industry to
adjust our practices, adopt new understandings, and develop new skills.

Advancements in technology
have fundamentally changed what it means to live, work, and learn in an
increasingly digital world. Understanding the role technology plays in our work
is critical as technology continues to advance and become even more embedded
into our work. It’s also important to ensure that technology supports your
strategy instead of driving it. Being prepared for this emerging technological world
won’t be easy and will require an understanding of where we’ve been, where we
are, and where we are headed.

Discussions
and understanding about inclusion and accessibility can vary by organization.
These discussions should be about more than just doing the bare minimum for
compliance. L&D leaders should be talking about the difference they can
make by ensuring everyone has an equal opportunity to learn from what they
produce.

Microlearning has infiltrated
L&D. It’s been fascinating to listen to the tactics, strategies, and
debates about what it is and what it isn’t, as well as why it’s important or whether
it is even anything new. Beyond the hyperbole, L&D practitioners are
employing microlearning initiatives but what results are they seeing?

Augmented and
virtual reality are fast emerging in both the enterprise and consumer markets.
While these technologies are still evolving, the potential these technologies
have to support learning and performance are already emerging.
